Take a stroll outdoors and view the 2020-21 Sculpture WalkAbout!
May Day is SWA Day in Wichita! On Saturday, May 1, join us to celebrate and explore Sculpture WalkAbout in Downtown Wichita. Arts Council members will be at CityArts from 4-6pm.
Many of the artists will be on hand for questions and brochures will be available, showing the locations of the 15 sculptures. Visitors are encouraged to take selfies with the artwork and share them on their social media platforms with hashtags #ICTart and #MayDaySWA for the chance to win prizes! Council Member Cindy Claycomb, an Arts Council Ex-Officio Board Member, will present the Award of Excellence to one of the sculptors.
The Arts Council and the City of Wichita present an annual opportunity for regional sculptors to display their work by creating the outdoor Sculpture WalkAbout exhibit. This project is meant to advance the cultural awareness of the arts in our community, as well as enhance the aesthetics in Wichita.
Entries are currently open for the 13th Annual Sculpture WalkAbout, to be on display from July 1, 2021-July 31, 2022. For more information and to apply, visit Wichitaarts.com/2021-swa-call. . Deadline for applications is June 14, 2021.
